I feel like perhaps I am supposed to be embarrassed to tell you that I LOVE Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares. I am not sure why. After a day of sunshine and rainbows in the kitchen, where 99.5% of the people who call, or write, or come play in the kitchen are delightful, there is something super fun about kicking back to a flood of F-bombs from old chef GR.

Once upon a time, when I used to where pointy high-heeled boots and pretend to be a grown-up with a real job for a great big advertising agency, I was never shy about taking advantage of the perks. Perks included having a DVD club as a client and getting to order all the movies I wanted and expense it (hence my ownership of The OC season one.
